By bicycle from Dortmund to Lanstrop

This ride takes you from the lively heart of Dortmund out to the quieter suburb of Lanstrop, covering just under 13 kilometers—perfect for a relaxed cruise! You’ll start in Dortmund, a city famous for its beer culture and impressive football history (shout-out to BVB fans!). The route rolls mostly along quiet roads and paved paths, so you can enjoy the scenery without heavy traffic stress.

You’ll pedal through a nice mix of cityscape and green fringes, passing local parks and residential streets. With a gentle ascent and more downhill than uphill, it’s easy-going—even if you’re not a mountain goat. Surfaces are mostly paved or asphalt, though you’ll hit a few stretches of paving stones and a dab of gravel. Keep an eye out for older tree-lined avenues and maybe pause to grab a coffee at a local café.

Once you reach Lanstrop, take a moment to enjoy the peaceful, small-town vibe—a nice contrast to Dortmund’s urban energy. All in all, a pleasant ride for commuters or anyone wanting to explore beyond the city!
